On the eve Weird West received patch 1.03 - The Miners and the Restless. In Chile, another update brought fresh content.
The main novelties of the update:
- Armed perks. Now, every type of weapon you find in the world has a small chance of having an accidental perk - such as increased critical damage against non-humans, a chance to poison enemies, or the ability to ignore part of the armor in the target. If you pump the weapon, it will save the perk.
- Reputation tab. It allows you to keep track of which vendets are still active against you and which friends you have found, as well as find out where they are looking for you.
- New aiming settings
- Redesigned artificial intelligence companions. The authors removed most of the problems due to which the Allies did not take part in the fighting, got stuck and did not follow the main character or disappeared altogether. In the future, AI will be made even better.
- A new system of progress. Now armed skills are transferred between travels. If you download the save made before the patch is released, you will be allowed to enable the new system, and all previous races will use it by default. The developers have also rebalanced the gaming economy and enemy levels in secondary areas
- Improved optimization, thanks to which Wierd West gives a stable 60 fps at Xbox Series S. Also the frame rate should increase by PlayStation 4, Xbox One and weak PC.
- A mountain of fixes. Details - here.
Weird West is available at PC, PlayStation and Xbox, including Game Pass.
